Question

I am not talking about categories, just want an open point of view, are we again going backwards here are we becoming racists, are we sure that all the muslims are the cause of all the unrest today in the world, how do you think the world media showcase

Answer 1

being a muslim is just like anyother religion it is based on peace and love and belief and also the protection of its innocents
stop being a racist and leave them alone, and NO they are not the cuase of unrest in the world its goerge w bushs atitude towards them that is filling their hearts with hatred that is whats cuasing the unrest and the world media only makes them look like terrorists and just wants the world to support more wars against them like whats happening these days

Answer 2

I love being Muslim; not just the term "Muslim" that we associate with modern day perceptions but a real Muslim--a submitter. There are some Christians and Jews that may even be Muslims and not even know it. I guess the only way I can express my contentness is perhaps in a way you would relate: like the church with their candles and hymns etc. Islam has a rhythmic recitation of the Holy Quran that makes me melt. God's verses are saturated with rhetoric, philosophy and poetic in nature. I think Islam should be more about the message and not the laws (which are important but have been way over-emphasized nowadays). Here is a verse I particularily like to ponder on because it has both an exoteric and esoteric meaning. English (I've heard) never gives it true justice I get the same concept:

God is the light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of his light is as it were that of a niche containing a lamp; the lamp is enclosed in glass, the glass shining like a radiant star; a lamp lit from a blessed tree--and olive tree that is neither of the east nor the west--the oil whereof is so bright that it would well-nigh give light of itself even though fire had not touched it: light upon light. ~God~

Answer 3

Being anti-muslim is not being racist because islam is not a race.
I see muslims as, at best, being fooled by an evil man named muhammad into thinking pagan moon god allah is the real God of the Bible, and at worse being the terrorists who are inspired by the koran to murder innocent people. After muslims attacked the USA on 9/11/2001 I bought a koran to see if the terrorists were really doing as the koran instructs them to do or were abusing islam as many have said. I read every page, every word, and now I know that islam is evil and the koran does teach them to be terrorists. The first foreign enemy to attack Americans after we became a free country were muslim terrorists that at the time were called the Barbary Pirates.Terrorists then, terrorists now, all for pagan moon god allah...
Surah 4:34 evern tells muslims to beat their wives. Islam has never been, nor ever will be peaceful.

Answer 4

I dont know what it is like to be a muslim. They dont seem to be very much fun though. They dont seem to laugh or have fun like other people. It seems like a sad existence to me.

Answer 5
